In fact yesterday, being only the fifth day of school, I lost one of my best French students but to a great cause. She was accepted to a boarding school in the state of Michigan to study WRITING! YES! Only 15 years old, and she is on her way. She is thrilled (I could already tell she has a love for language). I wish her well. I wish all the youngsters in this competition FUN as they let their imaginations GO!<br /><br />Happy weekend dearest Barbara!
